I got this email from the NYAF mailing list - it may be of interest to you comic fans willing to travel to the city!

Be a Comic Fan on TV!
Comer & Gallucio Casting is looking for comic enthusiasts (like yourself) to do background work on the HBO show Bored to Death at the end of May in New York City. To qualify for the role, you must be 18 or older and legal to work in the US.

If you meet these requirements, email your full name, phone number and 2 current amateur snapshots (one of your face and the other showing your entire body) to BOREDTODEATH2010@gmail.com. Oh yeah, and if you dress in costume for comic conventions and have a pic, send that too!
